• Alongside these new updates, the newest addition to the Supernova franchise is 4% lighter than its predecessor, elevating the everyday running experience

Today, adidas unveils the Supernova Rise 2, the latest addition to its comfort-tuned Supernova franchise designed for the everyday run.

Built to provide even more comfort than its award-winning predecessor, the Supernova Rise 2 debuts a new upper, engineered with a refined sandwich mesh material for a more breathable and secure fit.  The refined upper of the Supernova Rise 2 allows the shoe to be 4% lighter than the original silhouette, thanks to an updated engineered outer mesh and a streamlined heel pillow. The shoe also introduces a new and improved heel construction which incorporates a refined foam collar for enhanced support and comfort.

Underfoot, the Supernova Rise 2 packs all the ingredients seen in its award-winning predecessor. The full-length Dreamstrike+ super-foam takes inspiration from Lightstrike Pro – the midsole material utilized across the record-breaking Adizero franchise – but with an updated formula to offer unparalleled comfort and cushioning. This is paired with a Support Rod system, embedded in the midsole to provide support as runners transition from heel to toe, as well as stability when needed. To provide grip underfoot, the Supernova Rise 2 features an ADIWEAR outsole, made of durable rubber which provides optimal traction out on the road.

JT Newcomb, Category Director, adidas Running Footwear, says: “When developing the Supernova Rise 2, we wanted to bring everything that our running community loved about its predecessor while adding new features that double down on the franchise’s comfort-driven goal. Thanks to the revamped upper, the Supernova Rise 2 is 4% lighter than its predecessor, providing the best daily running experience to all, mile after mile.”

The Supernova Rise 2 launches in an Orbit Grey colorway for men and Wonder Quartz colorway for women. Available from €150 / $140, the shoe is available in-store and online at  adidas.com/running-shoes from 3^rd December 2024. Additional colorways of the Supernova Rise 2 will be available to purchase in 2025.
